Hi,
ok so I totally admit that I messed up. I bought rims off ebay for my 2004 since I had steel ones. Now I am trying to find the center caps but for nothing in this lifetime can I remember which Truck these rims belong too.
They are 16's. Can you recognize them?
If so than you are a million times better than me:)
Thanks for your thoughts!!

Hi SkylineGTRracer,
thanks for your reply. I was 85% sure they were from a 4runner.
Do you know they year by any chance? I think they are 2008 but not too sure right now.
 
Those are the same type from 2003-2009. I not sure what exact year your rims are but you shouldn't have a hard time as they carried over for that long. the center caps look like they might also fit the SR5 and sport edition rims which are 17 inches. so you got good foundation on what to look for.
 
You should be able to find center caps here Conicelli Parts Center

They are probably a little cheaper than the dealer.

Edit: Just realized you're in Germany. I'm not sure about shipping.

They look like the standard 16" rim on the 4th gen SR5 4Runners. The 17" rims were optional on the SR5, though most came with the option.
 
Hi guys,
thanks for answering! They are 16's not 17's. I am looking online what those caps look like but as the devil wants it I could only find one example and they were from a 2008 and the caps looked odd. Do any of you out there have those rims and could maybe post a pic?
I have been looking at all the 4runners on post but they all have a different type of rim...sometimes it sucks to be overseas...
Shipping is no issue, worst case I ship to in-Laws and they ship to me.
They have shipped everything but the kitchen sink already in the last 10years:)
 
In the meantime, you can pull the wheels and hit that centerpiece with some silver paint to help out the aesthetics.
 
This is the closest picture of them that I could find in a rush. and for a reference I put a pic of my own rim. hope it helps.

SamNavy,
I would like to sell that 4Runner and buy another one so I want to get everything in order..and really you do not want to let me loose with a can of paint!!
I am officially forbidden to touch any kind of paint and that has been an ongoing rule for like ever:) I think it had something to do with the fact that I painted 2 rooms in my first apartment lilac and mint. I think it took 5 coats to cover after I moved out:)

SkylineGTRracer,
thanks for the pics. I think I was right after all. They are the weird center caps with the "dip" going in and ridges, don't know how else to describe them?
Do you think you have a closer pic? No rush btw I am grateful for all the help:)

Zinarac,
I looked at the website that you posted..they have something that could be it. I sure hope for my wallet they are $50 for the set not a piece!!
 
I believe its #2 but I'm sure that if you call and order it and tell them what you got they will point you in the right direction. I'm just guessing it's the second one as its above the steel rim and #3 looks like mine. I wish it were more detailed but it got the job done.
 
I do think we are right I am pretty sure it is #2. #1 looks like mine form the steel rims the truck came with.
I just really hope that is the price for a set..not per piece! Because if that is per piece then the stupid caps would cost me the equivalence of the rims!!!!
I will call them tomorrow and get some more info.
Thanks for all your help!
 
Bangers Runner,
mine is 4wd and the rims fit perfect. Don't think that makes a difference but not sure.
You are not by any chance selling those caps are you?;):
